-narrative title sequence = this opening tells the audience a small part of the story, gives clues, that grab the audiences attention. This can be done by a series of shots.
-stylized opening= A mixture of credits and moving images. This type relies of editing to set the mood. Font, text shown, shape lettering- for eg if the writing is sharp, the audience will assume the film will involve danger.
-discrete opening= builds tension by giving out clues, not much information.
The 4 types are:
1)still image
2)blank screen
3)moving images
4)animation
My favourite title sequence film opening would be the stylized -moving images type. This would be because editing is a very powerful tool to set the mood and I really like to see movies with more edits because it looks more interesting instead of dull on screen. The titles and credits also look great when they match the theme of the movie, that's when the audience will really feel the mood and zone out of the real world into the world of the film.

I like this title sequence opening because the titles and credits are matching the theme of the movie in the colour red to represent blood and the moving images give out clues that there will be attacks and blood. The music is loud and aggressive, this matches with the move and helps us make judgements of how the rest of the movie will be.
